How about when freshman had to play on the jayvees?As in Lew Alcindor and the jayvees beat the UCLA varsity in a scrimmage.
Dude was that good but still wasn’t allowed to play varsity.
Seems totally unbelievable today.But it really used to be that way.

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 04:11:15 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85759The NBA does not operate as free market like the companies you mention. It’s basically a cartel.

So while individual businesses can have their own hiring policies, they cannot act together to collude against hiring non-degreed workers (group boycott).

That’s why this has to be bargained through the collective agreement with the union and nba teams.

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 01:26:32 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85737I wish it would be three years. I miss the days of two decades ago when guys stayed in school and we had great returning teams and we were familiar with the players. There would’ve been no great Villanova upset in 85 if Ewing didn’t stay all 4 years.

Wed, 18 Apr 2012 00:29:22 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85725Bottom line… a 3 year rule would allow the NCAA to make more money off the players. The NBPA is not going to fall for it

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 23:32:25 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85710I would personally like to see a 2 year minimum with the option to go straight out of high school. That way schools aren’t going to be losing these kids so quickly and the kids have the option if they don’t want to go to college.

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 23:00:03 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85707This is looking at the issue from the wrong side. What college needs to install is a rule that over a 6 or 7 year period you must graduate a certain percentage of your scholarship players to qualify to play in the tourney. (you need to look at the stats to set the parameters of the requirement) This will not end the 1 and out process but it will limit the number of one and out players any school can afford to recruit. Become an NBA training camp like Kentucky and after a few years you can’t play in March madness.

This year Kentucky looked like they were playing 3 or 4 professional basketball players of their 5 rather than student athletes who also happened to be good b-ball players. 1 year and they will be gone. This type of thing makes the potential for the Cinderella story in March almost impossible and will make the best 5 to 10 college teams little more than NBA training sites which is a shame..

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 20:37:11 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85668No one is saying that an NBA team does not have to have standards. These teams can have an internal policy of not drafting one and done players.

Maybe the Bobcats should make a stand and not draft Anthony Davis.

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:52:20 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85658Who cares? Many companies/corporations will only look at prospective employees with degrees or master’s degrees. I don’t feel bad that an elite athlete has to “go to college” for 1 year (or 2 years if they change it). And I use the term “go to college” very loosely.

LeBron James is in the one percentile. 99% of kids could use at minimum 1 year of college.

I’d be in favor of a 2 year rule because it’d make the college game better and the NBA’s incoming prospects better as well. Although I wouldn’t mind if there was a rule, say, if the team with the #1 overall pick commits to drafting you by a certain date, you can come out early (including straight out of high school). That would be a pretty cool rule.

So I am tired about hearing about this rule. David Stern has said this is a business decision and they have every right to decide what qualifies a person to be hired by there business. Don’t really agree with it but that is how it is.

Tue, 17 Apr 2012 19:16:24 +0000http://probasketballtalk.nbcsports.com/?p=64432#comment-85650College Basketball wants what College Football has. At least 3 years. Make sense.

Outside of the whole body development thing, what other argument holds water for an aspiring high school football players to be declined to play NFL football? Some of these kids these days are just as fast and big as their professional counterparts.
